Provenance: Removed by the vendor from Lanrick Castle, near Doune in Stirling, in 1973, he having been informed that the castle was to be abandoned due to inheritance tax. The panels had been part of the decorative scheme in the entrance hall. Lanrick Castle was built around 1790, with Gothic additions made in 1815. In 1994 the castle was gutted by fire and lost its roof and in 2002 the remaining structure was demolished. The owner, Alistair Dickson, who inherited the building in 1984, was prosecuted for demolishing a listed structure without the necessary consent, and was fined £1,000. Grand-scale use of papier-mache mouldings were first used in Britain around 1740 as a substitute for plaster mouldings. Most extant examples are still in situ, and given their fragile nature, a survival such as these is remarkable. (4) £700-1000

Its owner, Sir Ashton Lever, commissioned Sarah Stone to paint many of the specimens housed in the vast sixteen room mansion. Her artwork is considered of great importance as a record of some of the species collected by explorers and housed in the long-since defunct museum, some of which are now extinct or have endangered populations. The museum was put up as a lottery prize in 1786, with tickets priced at one guinea. The collection was eventually dispersed in 1806, selling at auctions over a period of sixty-five days.

Provenance: The vendor is the god-daughter and a cousin of Lilian Eaton, Charles Eaton’s daughter, who was a scientist. Charles Eaton was a decorative artist and lecturer, who taught at the Northern Polytechnic for thirty-one years. He was instrumental in raising the standard of learning there so that it became the first school whose course was recognised by the Institute of British Decorators & Interior Designers, of which Eaton was Director from 1954 to 1955. He was also Chairman of the London & General District Incorporated Institute of British Decorators, President of the Association of Painting Craft Teachers in 1958, Fellow of the Institute of British Decorators & Interior Designers and Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts. Charles Eaton’s retirement from the Northern Polytechnic was marked by a dinner in 1950, and ‘The Journal of Decorative Art’ reported: “‘The Maestro’ had been asked to bring six friends of his own choosing, and so his daughter, Miss Lilian Eaton, who appeared to know the ‘old boys’ was there to witness the tributes paid to one of the most conscientous teachers who ever graced the profession.” (an archive) £300-500

718* Shadbolt (Cecil Victor, 1859-1892) - Aerial Photography & Ballooning. A remarkable and historic collection of 76 magic lantern slides as owned and used by pioneering hot air balloonist-photographer Cecil Victor Shadbolt for his lecture ‘Balloons and Ballooning’, circa 1882-1892, including 27 vertical and oblique aerial photographic views of London and one of the Eiffel Tower, plus two colour photographic slides of Reliance and a second balloon with crowds, one of Shadbolt and ‘Captain’ William Dale in the balloon car for Reliance (with Shadbolt’s camera visible and attached to the basket), two further photographic slides of the balloon being inflated with Shadbolt just visible among crowd scenes of each, five further photographic slides of the second balloon [‘Victoria’] airborne taken with balloon to balloon photography, in one of which a man stands on the edge of the balloon car, one slide giving the brief handwritten details of Shadbolt’s first successful balloonphotography ascent on 29 May 1882, the remaining 37 magic lanterns slides from engravings or drawings, all but four coloured and including the first slide to the lecture with decorative title ‘Balloons and Ballooning, “Upward and Onwards”, by C.V. Shadbolt’, some slides with manuscript order numbers, occasional captions and Shadbolt’s name, presumed in his hand, scattered minor mildew, but generally very good condition with seals intact, one non-photographic slide with hairline crack, contained in one large and one small wooden lantern slide box An extraordinary collection, including the earliest known surviving aerial photograph of Great Britain, being that of Stamford Hill, taken on 29 May 1882 (reproduced from an original or copy held by George Eastman House in Beaumont Newhall’s The Airborne Camera: The World from the Air and Outer Space (1969), p. 37.
Cecil V. Shadbolt & ‘Captain’ William Dale
The lantern slide reproducing handwriting gives Shadbolt’s account of this historic occasion: ‘1st Ascent: 29th May 1882 (Whit Monday), Balloon ‘Reliance’ from Alexandra Palace. Started at 4pm. Descended at 5.30. Duration of voyage 1hr 30 mins. Distance travelled 14 miles. Miles per hour 9 1/3. Highest altitude 5,000 ft. Place of descent Ilford. 5min walk from station. Remarks: Weather fine and bright, but clouds were high so did not get above them. At 5000 ft noticed that although we were in shadow the sun was shining on the earth below. Obtained very successful photograph of Stamford Hill district at altitude of 2000 ft and several others not so good. Came down in a field of green corn and experienced very rough treatment at the hands of the crowds who tore the balloon and Barker’s coat in addition.’ The details and dates of some other sixty ascents by Shadbolt are not documented but it is thought that the majority or all of these aerial photographs were taken in the 1880s, and certainly no later than 1892 when Shadbolt died in a tragic ballooning accident at the Crystal Palace along with the balloon’s pilot Captain Dale. Other views identified on the slides (probably in Shadbolt’s hand) include Catford Bridge from 1900 feet (two similar views) and 1960 feet, Sutton from 800 feet, Beckenham Junction from 1500 feet, January on Wardle River from 1000 feet, Thornton Heath from 1500 feet, 6,000 feet Belvedere, 4,800 feet Dartford. Also identifiable is Blackheath: see illustration of similar Shadbolt photograph in Gaston Tissandier, La photographie en ballon (Paris, 1886), p. 21. Interestingly, this is accompanied by a short two-page chapter about Shadbolt’s balloon photography experiences in England in 1883 (sic). This mistaken date of 1883 is repeated in the article on Aerial Photography in John Hannavy (ed.), Encyclopaedia of Nineteenth-Century Photography (2007), pp. 12-13. The other clearly identifiable photograph is that of Crystal Palace, Sydenham, which is captioned as photographed at 2,000 feet. This photograph is a little blurry compared to the others and may well be because it was taken from a tethered balloon rather than from a free floating balloon and thus liable to more shake and vibration. In spite of the regular tethered balloon flights at Crystal Palace this is believed to be the earliest known surviving aerial photograph of the building of Crystal Palace itself. The one aerial photograph present in this collection not of London is that of the Eiffel Tower (opened 31 March 1889). ‘A very successful photograph of Paris, showing the Eiffel Tower and Exhibition Buildings, has been taken from a balloon by Mr Cecil V Shadbolt, of Chislehurst, and is published by Messrs Heywood and Co, 62, Ludgate Hill, EC’ (The Graphic, 30 November 1889). The Cambridge Daily News adds that the photo was taken ‘from the car of the captive balloon in the Exhibition grounds, at a height of about 1,000 feet. The landscape is remarkably clear, and the tower itself stands out boldly, dwarfing its surroundings into insignificance’ (23 November 1889). The photographs are remarkably clear and when magnified show very clear detail of houses, railway cuttings and other landmarks, notably the River Thames appearing in several of the slides. Four views are seen through some cloud cover. Of the other photographic slides one is notable for showing Shadbolt (and Captain Dale) with his camera, sitting on the edge of the balloon car and looking straight at the camera. This photograph is credited to H. Chubb of Chislehurst, close to where Shadbolt lived. This photograph is reproduced in The Photographic News, 17 October 1884, p. 659. The same article also includes the ‘Blackheath’ vertical as later published by Tissandier. The majority of photographs present here have not been traced elsewhere. Of the non-photographic slides (all but five of which are coloured illustrations) some show man’s various unusual attempts to fly and other incidents from ballooning history, real or imagined. Of the uncoloured slides two show scenes of mobbing, a not uncommon phenomenon with people angry at man’s unnatural and godly attempts at flight. As described in Shadbolt’s description of his first ascent in the slide included here it was something that Shadbolt suffered at least once. The other black and white slide that should be noted is the reproduction of a famous engraving from a drawing by W.L. Wyllie, reproduced in The Graphic, May 1884, showing a bird’s-eye view of London as seen from a balloon. Timeline: 1784 Vincent Lunardi makes first successful balloon flight over British soil. 1787 Robert Barker patents the Panorama, depicting views seen from a lofty viewpoint. 1858 Nadar captures the first aerial photograph over Paris from a tethered balloon. The ‘tolerable’ result has not survived. 1860 Oldest known successful surviving balloon photograph: a view of Boston, USA, by Professor Samuel A. King and J.W. Black. 1863 Henry Negretti takes first successful aerial photographs over England in a free flight above the River Medway. Once again, the results have been lost. 1879 Jean Nicolas Truchelut credited with taking first dry-plate aerial photographs of Paris in a balloon. 1882 Earliest known surviving aerial photograph of Great Britain: Cecil V. Shadbolt, vertical view of Stamford Hill, London, 29 May. 1883 Earliest known air photograph from a balloon taken in Canada, by Captain Henry Esdale. 1909 Wilbur Wright takes first aerial photographs from an aeroplane, near Rome. 1946 US launched V2 gives first photographic view of Earth from space.

MARCUS AND GILBERT ADAMS PHOTOGRAPHY ARCHIVE (Arthur) Walton Adams (1842-1934) was a photographer who worked in Southampton and Reading. He was the co-inventor of the dryplate process. His son, Marcus Adams (1875-1959), established a reputation as a leading child photographer. In 1919 he joined up with Bertram Park (1883-1972) and his wife Yvonne Gregory (1889-1970) to form the 'Three Photographers'. In 1926, Marcus Adams took first official photographs of the Duchess of York and Princess Elizabeth (future Queen Mother and Queen Elizabeth II) and continued up to 1956 in a sitting with Princess Anne. His son, Gilbert Adams (1906-1996), assisted in his early years but later established his own highly successful career as a photographer, specialising in photographing the ballet. All the following lots come from the estate of Gilbert Adams’ late widow, Rosalind Thuillier. See Rosalind Thuillier, Marcus Adams, Photographer Royal (1985).

Conditions of Sale and Business 1. The Seller warrants to the Auctioneer and the buyer that he is the true owner or is properly authorised to sell the property by the true owner and is able to transfer good and marketable title to the property free from any third party claims.
7. Any representation or statement by the Auctioneer in any catalogue, brochure or advertisement of forthcoming sales as to authorship, attribution, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price is a statement of opinion only. Every person interested should exercise and rely on his own judgement as to such matters and neither the Auctioneer nor his servants or agents are responsible for the correctness of such opinions. No warranty whatsoever is given by the Auctioneer or the seller in respect of any lot and any express or implied warranties are hereby excluded.
2. (a) The highest bidder to be the buyer. If during the auction the Auctioneer considers that a dispute has arisen he has absolute authority to settle it or re-offer the lot. The Auctioneer may at his sole discretion determine the advance of bidding or refuse a bid, divide any lot, combine any two or more lots or withdraw any lot without prior notice. (b) Where goods are bought at auction by a buyer who has entered into an agreement with another or others that the other or others (or some of them) shall abstain from bidding for the goods and the buyer or other party or one of the other parties is a dealer (as defined in the Auction Biddings Agreement Act 1927) the buyer warrants that the goods are bought bona fide on joint account.
8. (a) Notwithstanding any other terms of these conditions, if within fourteen days of the sale the Auctioneer has received from the buyer of any lot notice in writing that in his view the lot is a deliberate forgery and within fourteen days after such notification the buyer returns the same to the Auctioneer in the same condition as at the time of the sale and satisfies the Auctioneer that considered in the light of the entry in the catalogue the lot is a deliberate forgery then the sale of the lot will be rescinded and the purchase price of the same refunded. "A deliberate forgery" means a lot made with intention to deceive. (b) A buyer's claim under this condition shall be limited to any amount paid to the Auctioneer for the lot and for the purpose of this condition the buyer shall be the person to whom the original invoice was made out by the Auctioneer.
3. The buyer shall pay the price at which a lot is knocked down by the Auctioneer to the buyer (“the hammer price”) together with a premium of 19.5% of the hammer price. Where the lot is marked by an asterisk the premium will be subject to VAT at 23.40% which under the Auctioneer’s Margin Scheme will form part of the buyer’s premium on our invoice and will not be separately identified (the premium added to the hammer price will hereafter collectively be referred to as “the total sum due”). By making any bid the buyer acknowledges that his attention has been drawn to the fact that on the sale of any lot the Auctioneer will receive from the seller commission at its usual rates in addition to the said premium of 19.5% and assents to the Auctioneer receiving the said commission.
9. Lots may be removed during the sale after full settlement in accordance with 4(d) hereof. 10. All goods delivered to the Auctioneer's premises will be deemed to be delivered for sale by auction unless otherwise stated in writing and will be catalogued and sold at the Auctioneer's discretion and accepted by the Auctioneer subject to all these conditions. In the case of miscellaneous books, the Auctioneer reserves the right to extract and dispose of books that, in the opinion of the Auctioneer at his absolute discretion, have no saleable value and, therefore, might detract from the saleability of the rest of the lot and the Auctioneer shall incur no liability to the seller, in respect of the books disposed of. By delivering the goods to the Auctioneer for inclusion in his auction sales each seller acknowledges that he/she accepts and agrees to all the conditions.
4. (a) The buyer shall forthwith upon the purchase give in his name and permanent address and pay to the Auctioneer immediately after the conclusion of the auction the total sum due. (b) The buyer may be required to pay down during the course of the sale the whole or any part of the total sum due, and if he fails to do so after such request the lot or lots may at the Auctioneer's absolute discretion be put up again and resold immediately. (c) The buyer shall at his own expense take away any lot or lots purchased no later than five working days after the auction day. (d) The Auctioneer may at his own discretion agree credit terms with a buyer and extend the time limits for collection in special cases but otherwise payment shall be deemed to have been made only after the Auctioneer has received cash or a sterling banker’s draft or the buyer's cheque has been cleared.
11. (a) Unless otherwise instructed in writing all goods on the Auctioneer's premises and in their custody will be held insured against the risks of fire, burglary, water damage and accidental breakage or damage. The value of the goods so covered will be the hammer price, or in the case of unsold lots the best bid, or in the case of loss or damage prior to the sale that which the specialised staff of the Auctioneer shall in their absolute discretion estimate to be the auction value of such goods. (b) The Auctioneer shall not be responsible for damage to or the loss, theft, or destruction of any goods not so insured because of the owner’s written instructions.
5. (a) If the buyer fails to pay for or take away any lot or lots pursuant to clause 4 or breaches any other condition of that clause the Auctioneer as agent for the seller shall be entitled after consultation with the seller to exercise one or other of the following rights: (i) Rescind the sale of that or any other lots sold to the buyer who defaults and re-sell the lot or lots whereupon the defaulting buyer shall pay to the Auctioneer any shortfall between the proceeds of that sale after deduction of costs of re-sale and the total sum due. Any surplus shall belong to the seller. (ii) Proceed for damages for breach of contract. (b) Without prejudice to the Auctioneer's rights hereunder if any lots or lots are not collected within five days or such longer period as the Auctioneer may have agreed otherwise, the Auctioneer may charge the buyer a storage charge of £1.00 + VAT at the current rate per lot per day. (c) Ownership of the lot purchased shall not pass to the buyer until he has paid to the Auctioneer the total sum due.
12. The Auctioneer shall remit the proceeds of the sale to the seller thirty days after the day of the auction provided that the Auctioneer has received the total sum due from the buyer. In all other cases the Auctioneer will remit the proceeds of the sale to the seller within seven days of the receipt by the Auctioneer of the total sum due. The Auctioneer will not be deemed to have received the total sum due until after any cheque delivered by the buyer has been cleared. In the event of the Auctioneer exercising his right to rescind the sale his obligation to the seller hereunder lapses.
6. (a) The seller shall be entitled to place a reserve on any lot and the Auctioneer shall have the right to bid on behalf of the seller for any lot on which a reserve has been placed. A seller may not bid on any lot on which a reserve has been placed. (b) Where any lot fails to sell, the Auctioneer shall notify the seller accordingly. The seller shall make arrangements either to re-offer the lot for sale or to collect the lot and may be asked to pay a commission not exceeding 50% of the selling commission and any special expenses incurred in cataloguing the lot. (c) If such arrangements are not made within seven days of the notification the Auctioneer is empowered to sell the lot by auction or by private treaty at not less than the reserve price and to receive from the seller the normal selling commission and special expenses.
13. In the case of the seller withdrawing instructions to the Auctioneer to sell any lot or lots, the Auctioneer may charge a fee of 12.5% of the Auctioneer's middle estimate of the auction price of the lot withdrawn together with Value Added Tax thereon and any expenses incurred in respect of the lot or lots. 14. The Auctioneer’s current standard notices and information (i.e. Collation and Amendments) will apply to any contract with the Auctioneer as if incorporated herein. 15. These conditions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with English Law.
